So, how about them Season 3 teaser spoilers! Oh, wait...

I only caught the ending and missed the buildup completely...so, all I can say is: OMGWTF!?!

I now suffer from a severe conflict of emotions.

On one hand, I wish to murder Moore for making me wait until October.

On the other hand, I want him to keep making more. :(

Damn it...

I like it that they make the characters seem to look like they shaped down after a year of not much action.

And man, this is fucking frakked up. (looks at calendar, looks at calendar, looks at calendar)

Speaking of WWII, I was thinking Douglas MacArthur and his infamous "I shall return!" utterance when Admiral Adama gave the order to leave.

This episode was fucking awesome.

A Cylon. The same model (maybe same one infact) Starbuck interogated and Roslin sent out an airlock.

More like six and a half months (mid-March, April, May, June, July, August, September, sometime in October).

The sad thing was, everyone could see that Baltar becoming President would be the worst fracking thing in the universe, except for the damn voters.

It's more that he looks like a messier version of Kevin Smith. He needs a backward cap to get to Silent Bob. Oddly, now that you mention it, Kara looks a tiny bit like Jay with her longer hair. :lol: [/quote]

Bravo, Baltar, bravo. You've fucked them all. Several times.
Then again, the voters had it coming, voting for the shifty bastard.

Well, that is a cliffhanger. Well played.

That might have been the best hour and a half of television I have ever watched.

I never would have ever expected a television show to reach so far as they did here. To jump a year ahead like that, to completely change the status-quo.

To the people who claimed "the writer's flinched" by not having Roslin die of cancer earlier, I say they didn't, they just hung in there for something much, much bigger.

Well, isn't that a cliffhanger.

Did anyone else notice that the Geminon Freighter was hit by the nuke? I love that ship. :(

I need to change my undies. Holy frak, that was the greatest season finale cliffhanger since BOBW part 1. :shock:

I don't think its a dream sequence/simulation either. I had thought that near the end, until the Cylons came.


HOLY SHIT. :shock:
